🚨New paper alert🚨 and the second from our deep-dive into who is mating with who in the multimale mountain gorilla groups monitored by @SavingGorillas https://t.co/kTw5Bkhlyt @RSocPublishing

Grooming is an important activity for gorillas. And when all the other group members are too busy, sometimes you have to take matters into your own hands and groom yourself, just like the silverback Imfura!

Glad to have co-authored this one!

🚨NEW PAPER ALERT🚨Along with the fantastic @Eric_shimiye and the @SavingGorillas team we took a deep dive into female mountain gorillas' mating patterns demonstrating the variability of the mountain gorillas mating system. https://t.co/aPacRVgsp5

@DrRobinMorrison @eLife Congz Robin!

@DrRobinMorrison @NakedScientists @eLife Congratulations Robin!

[Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund @SavingGorillas]

Body size indicates competitive advantage in gorillas. Therefore, this information is likely to be crucial for rival males as well as females in influencing mate choice. Check out our full release. https://t.co/3oB75u7Rz6

Update on the gorillas: Tegereza from Ntamabara’s group, who recently gave birth, shared a special moment with her new baby. You can see her gently holding her infant and just can’t stop looking into her new baby’s eyes.

Update on the gorillas: We recently captured a beautiful moment between female Kurinda, of Ntambara’s group, and her infant Bisoke. Bisoke still needs her mother’s affection and attention and their bond is a strong one. Look at her making a funny face at mom 😍

[Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund @SavingGorillas]

Update on the gorillas: Ntambara’s group, led by dominant silverback Twibuke, is now ranging on the top of Mount Bisoke these days. Here you can see Ntambara's group walking through the mist near the crater lake located on the top of the volcano.

We thought you might need a motivational moment this morning! Ubufatanye’s infant from Musilikale’s says “You got this!” 😊👍
